We're Debt Free!!!!!!





It's been 4 years
of 
blood, sweat, and tears.
But 
the 
end 
result 
is been totally worth it all!

As of last night
Mr. Sergeant and I 
became
DEBT FREE!!!!

That was 4 years + of
no credit cards
no shopping sprees
and
saving, saving, saving.

We have paid off everything.
No Car Loan
No Home Loan
No CREDIT CARD BILLS
No Student Loans
and 
it 
feels 
spectacular!

We have an emergency fund
and 
a savings that looks like 
its 
supposed to.
Beautiful. 
LOL

If you're working on 
getting rid of your debt
and 
you ever need a swift kick
to get it back in gear
I'm your girl.

Trust me when I say 
I know how much
not spending sucks
not having a credit card 
when you think you 
need one
sucks.
But let me tell you
all 
those 
sucky 
moments
ARE
WORTH 
IT!

Keep it up 
and 
keep going!

And soon you'll be DEBT FREE too!

Woohoo!!! It will take a long time for us. Student loans suck. But we don't use credit cards and we've sold our second car so we're on our way!!

WooHoo!!! Congrats... M and I are working on getting debt free. All we have are the vehicle payments. It will help when I get a job at our next duty station.

Congratulations and Welcome to the club! It's a great relief not to have any balances hanging over your head. I rather eat roman than have to use any credit cards, hence the reason why we have no open accounts and two savings accounts (due to the amount the FDIC will insure if something went wrong with the bank.)

Faith said...

Mrs. Sergeant said...

Thanks Everyone! It's been an crazy ride, but being able to say it and it be true. MAN! lol It's great!

Allison @ I heart Change said...

That. Is. AWESOME! Go you! We've got a small car loan and the house to go but CC and student loan debt free is so good!

Nolie said...

WOOT! Congratulations!!! It is amazing to be debt free. Now that we got baby #2 on the way we were thinking of getting a bigger vehicle. Only thing stopping us is we don't want car payments. We just bought our car 2 years ago and paid cash. It is nice having it paid for.

Whooo Hoooo! Happy Dance! I can not wait until I can scream from the rooftops (and I will be) that I am debt free. I bet it is the most amazing feeling not knowing anyone anymore :)
